Provider: Monica Bonakdar, MD
Patient Information: 47 Year Old Female
Dr. Bonakdar Explains: In this patient, her lower face aging, namely in the nasolabial area is out of proportion to the rest of her face.

The repetitive contraction of her facial muscles with smiling has broken down the collagen in the overlying skin resulting in these deep folds. Correction of these folds makes a dramatic improvement in her appearance at rest as well as with smiling.

Provider: Monica Bonakdar, MD
Patient Information: 35 Year Old Female
Dr. Bonakdar Explains: Collagen loss leads to thinning of the skin and a formation of a fold or a wrinkle. Most of the time collagen loss is due to aging changes. Sometimes collagen loss is due to mechanical impact of repetitive muscle contraction on the overlying skin. This is the case of this lovely patient whose excessive smiling has led to her smile lines! Dr. Bonakdar prefers to use long lasting fillers such as Juvederm Voluma and Vollure when possible for her busy patients that understand the value of her expertise.
Procedure: Correction of Fine Lines Around the Mouth with Vollure
Provider: Monica Bonakdar, MD
Patient Information: 44 Year Old Female
Dr. Bonakdar Explains: Not all wrinkles have the same depth. All wrinkles start out as collagen loss in the underlying skin. As this subsurface collagen loss progresses, so does the depth of the surface wrinkle. Dr. Bonakdar chooses the appropriate filler to use for correction of wrinkles and folds based on their many characteristics. A filler that is too thin would not fill a deep wrinkle very well. Reversely, a robust thick filler would render bad results in thin skin with superficial lines. This patient was happy with her under the radar results with her long lasting filler.
